RE: Points, sessions etc

Hi guys, just got back from oz. not overly happy about the change of temperature but never mind! Keen to get back into the gym, need to get back on track after backsliding on holiday. I won’t get to 8 classes this month but will give it a good crack next month. Do we finish on august 20th? Thought we went to the end of august? Will check the blog site. Either way; seeyou all down there!

Cheers,

Kirk.

Hi Guys,

Glad we’re all talking about this as it is tough to look at the points board right now!

I’m still totally committed to getting through this with you all.

Less than a month to go now, so I’m sure we can all go hard for the final stretch!

This may sound sad – or is it just that I am a fitness freak - but I have already planned an attack on how to get through the 8 classes for August. I urge you all to give it your best shot, even if you go for 4 classes due to life’s other commitments.

I’ll be out of town with work commitments (and mandatory attendance at All Blacks v Wallabies in Chch) on 7th/8th, but otherwise should be around.

Although I haven’t made it to the 6am role calls, I have really taken a lot out of the sessions with Zach.

Let’s finish with a bang team. All the effort now will make the party on 21st August worth it!!

Cheers

Bern

PS – how’s everyone going with the nutrition? I’ve had more protein shakes in the last couple of months than I can count and found they actually do make a difference!

Hi all

I’m probably one of those guilty of sporadic attention to the competition as I try to juggle everything. But am keen to do a push for the last month.

As I understand it, we can maximse points by:

-doing the 8 classes between 1-20 August and

-getting everyone to blogg each day

Then our individual attendance points or doing group sessions are just welcome extra points on top of that.

So I guess the question is how many people can commit to those basics?

Finally I’ve really enjoyed all the sessions I’ve attended with Zach and Rick, but like Jen, family commitments really limit my time in the evenings and weekends. Never thought I’d ever be at the gym at 6am but team guilt got me there in the school holidays for Rick’s boot camp because I had no other free time to go!

Cheers B

Hi Zach & all,

Have just read your blog - I have just been down to the gym and seen the points table and likewise, feel pretty despondent, especially considering Maree and I have (stupidly?) just done 3 classes today in an attempt to get to the 8 for the month (after being away on holiday).

However, those of us who have gotten together a few times have enjoyed ourselves I think and I would be very keen to carry on with these meetings. Re your sessions Zach, I am one who has not managed to get along to any of yours and this has been because the times just didn't suit. Weekends and evenings are pretty difficult for me (kids!) but I'll try my best. Others in the team will no doubt have other thoughts about suitable times?!

Very keen to hear what other people think?!

Jennifer
